The owners of the low -income residential complex Himbola Manor did not comply with the deadline on January 31 to remedy the code injuries cited by LCG last year and are confronted with further fines.
“It is [LCG’s] Make that Himbola has not presented any compliance with violations, ”says the municipal lawyer Pat Ottinger.
The department for the development and planning of the city of the city once again addressed Himbola Manor Apartments on February 6 and found that repairs had not been carried out. One of the problems is the leaky roof of the complex, which after the provisional mold exposure from HUD led to mold growth in the entire complex.
The complex with 136 units has been in both Lafayette and the cross -country cross of the Federal Government since the summer when he gained 132 violations of Lafayette's city code.
Himbola paid the initial fines of 32,000 US dollars, but daily fines will start for violations of open code.
Hud also quoted the complex last year because he was not available to secure conditions and threatened to find his owners in the delay of their contract and to draw all means, unless repairs were carried out. Hud's roof, plumber and mold and mold inspections were required and became a frequent excuse for other repair delays from Eric Pullen, Himbola's lawyer.
If the roof is still not repaired, Himbola will continue to be fined from the city and remains threatened by Hud out of default.
Neither Pullen nor Hud responded to the inquiries from the current comment.
According to Ottinger, LCG will re -invest several units in the complex to get a final count for unresolved violations before the total foot floors can be rated.
